Suppressing and unsuppressing regions, plugins, and resources

Modified on: Sat, 23 Jul, 2016 at 12:11 AM

We strongly suggest that you do not suppress an entire region. Even if you do not use that region, many attackers will launch resources in an unused region because the risk of detection is much lower. Regardless, to create a suppression:

Navigate to the "Suppressions" page within the CloudSploit dashboard.

To suppress a region or test, simply click the button to turn it red.

To unsuppress a region or test, click the button again to return it to white.

To suppress a resource, you must navigate to a scan report.

Find the resource you wish to suppress and click it.

You'll be asked to confirm the suppression.

Once you suppress a resource or multiple resources, you will see those resources under the "Resources" section on the "Suppressions" page. To unsuppress them, click the delete button next to the suppression of the resource.
